What is the importance of low water shut-off?

November 4th, 2009

At Cleanparts.com we feel that low water safety shut-off is very important on all parts washers.  So important that we include it on every machine.  The purpose of the low water shut-off is to protect the parts cleaning systems pump and heat source in the event that the machine looses water that is not replenished.  A low water sensor is triggered, which disables the pump and the heat. By disabling the pump you prevent cavitation, which can ruin the pump.  It is important to disable the heating elements.  If energized while not submerged, immersion style heating elements will burn out on electric parts washers.

 

Are CleanParts.com machines offered in Stainless steel?

November 4th, 2009

Yes, the Cleanparts.com cabinet style parts washers are offered in Stainless steel.  There are several benefits to stainless steel machines over carbon steel, but there also is an added cost.  The CleanParts.com inline conveyor style parts washers are not offered in stainless steel.  For Conveyor style parts cleaning equipment in stainless steel visit Alliance Manufacturing, Inc. at  www.alliancemfginc.com.

Can a CleanParts.com machine be moved around in my shop?

September 18th, 2009

The Cleanparts.com cabinet washers are designed to accept a machine casters, which come in a bolt on kit. The casters can be installed at the factory at the time of original purchase or you can add them at your location. Once the casters are in place the machine can be rolled around on a smooth, flat surface, making it a mobile parts washer. One thing to keep in mind is that most parts cleaning machines are equipped with an exhaust fan, which should be vented outside of the building. The exhaust piping is typically vented through the ceiling or a side wall, which may require that the machine be placed in a set location. Cleanparts.com does offer a mist collector, which allows the machine to be vented directly into the room. The mist collector will take out a large amount of moisture from the exhaust stream, but please keep in mind that the exhaust air is still extremely humid.

What is the benefit of the roll in door?

September 18th, 2009

The roll in door design on the cleanparts.com front loading parts washer offers two distinct advantages over a refridgerator style door that swings out into the room. First, the roll in door saves on floor space. The door rolls inside the machine and does not swing out into the room, thus occupying less needed space for operation. Second, as the door rolls into the parts cleaning machine, spray solution and chemistry drain back into the machine, not onto the floor.  Doors that swing out can drip onto the floor in front of the machine, which can cause a slippery, unsafe condition for the operator. In addition to the functional features, the roll away door design offers a sleek look that adds the feel of quality and workmanship to any shop or manufacturing work cell.

All of the cleanParts.com front loading cabinet washers include a stainless steel removable chip basket for filtering debris.  The chip basket is cylindrical in shape and is designed to hold a standard disposable filter bag.  Installing a removable bag in the chip basket has four distinct advantages.  First, it prevents debris from settling on the parts washer tank bottom.  Second, it extends bath life - less debris in the parts cleaning solution.  Third, it can extend the life of your heating elements by minimizing debris build-up.  Finally, it makes periodic maintenance much less time consuming.  Bags are easily and quickly replaced, eliminating the added labor associated with flushing out the basket.   The bags are readily available in varying filter material size.
